    Author: Morrisson SG.
    Journal: Nurs Clin North Am; 1997 Dec; 32(4):791-812. PubMed ID: 9386226.
    Abstract:
    The elderly are adults that have unique nutritional needs. The focus for nutrition in the elderly is on "successful aging" or living well, not just living longer. Optimal physical and cognitive function is greatly enhanced by good nutritional status combined with physical activity. Nutrition plays a pivotal role in maintaining quality of life through enhanced health benefits.
